"The 2003 Barolo Brunate is an impressive effort. It is noticeably fresher than the Cerequio, with livelier color and more freshness in its essence of blackberry liqueur, roses, menthol and sweet toasted oak. This vibrant Barolo offers superb length and definition in a powerful, yet sweet style. It is another terrific Barolo from a vineyard that seems to have been especially successful in 2003."

Italy grows more indigenous grape varieties than any other country and produces wine in all 20 of its regions. From Piedmont's Nebbiolo to Tuscany's Sangiovese, its finest wines pair structure and bright acidity with a strong sense of place.
In Italy's northwest, Piedmont is home to Nebbiolo, the grape behind the powerful, perfumed and long-lived reds of Barolo and Barbaresco. Fog-shrouded hills and calcareous soils define its greatest wines.
The 'King of Wines,' a powerful, tannic and perfumed Nebbiolo from Piedmont's Langhe hills, celebrated for tar-and-roses aromatics and extraordinary aging potential.
